Current Condtions:

Ice Fest is here!  A few days late on your park update this week; we’ve got a lot going on!  The ice in the park is looking great, and more terrain has opened.  We’re fully prepped and ready for a fantastic weekend both in the park, and at the events in town.  A couple things to note:

All day Friday 1/24, Saturday 1/25 and until 12PM on Sunday 1/26, the majority of the park will be reserved for Ice Fest clinics.  Areas open to non-clinic climbers during these days will be: Lead Only, Between the Bridges, and New Funtier.  For those of you not in clinics this weekend, we highly recommend making friends with your neighbors so everyone can maximize their ice time. Sharing snacks doesn’t hurt!  ; )

Let’s have an ice weekend y’all!
